Hong Yun considered it for a long time. He could not drag down Brother Zhen Yuanzi.

Then he let out a sigh, vanished from where he had been meditating, and appeared outside Five Villages Temple.

At this moment, Zhen Yuanzi had already fallen into a disadvantage and was being suppressed by several Quasi-Saints.

With a thud, Zhen Yuanzi could no longer hold them off and fell to the ground.

Hong Yun panicked and flashed in front of Zhen Yuanzi.

Zhen Yuanzi froze!

"Y-you... why did you come out?"

"Alas... I cannot just watch Brother Dao fight alone and suffer injuries for my sake. I would be ashamed to accept that!"

Zhen Yuanzi was speechless!

"Y-you idiot!"

"Pfft~"

Though Zhen Yuanzi had not coughed up blood when he fell, Hong Yun angered him into an internal injury, making him spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Brother Dao! Are you all right?"

Zhen Yuanzi shook his head helplessly with a bitter smile, then swept up Hong Yun and prepared to return to Five Villages Temple.

How could Duke of the East let him have his way? With a wave of his hand, several Quasi-Saints immediately blocked his path.

"Hmph... still trying to run?"

Hong Yun was truly panicked now. He stepped forward.

"Fellow daoist Duke of the East, everything can be discussed. Look, we were both among the Three Thousand Guests of Purple Cloud Palace and shared the bond of listening to the Dao. We must not harm our goodwill!"

Zhen Yuanzi covered his face.

Duke of the East and the Quasi-Saints all looked at Hong Yun with sneers.

"Oh? Discuss it? Fine! This Emperor will give you a chance to discuss it."

Duke of the East said playfully.

Hong Yun immediately smiled at Zhen Yuanzi.

"Brother Dao, look, fellow daoist Duke of the East is quite reasonable! Why resort to fighting and killing at every turn? Wouldn't it be better to sit down and discuss things peacefully?"

Zhen Yuanzi could not bear to listen any longer and spat out another mouthful of blood.

"You..."

Everyone burst into laughter!

"Hahahaha, good... what a fine old good guy of the Primordial World, Hong Yun!"

Hong Yun was overjoyed when he heard that!

They were praising him. Wonderful! He, Hong Yun, loved being praised.

He happily skipped over to Duke of the East, clasped his fists, and bowed.

"Fellow daoist Duke of the East, you flatter me!"

Everyone was left speechless, then laughter erupted all around.

"What the hell! I'm dying of laughter, my stomach hurts! Hahahahaha..."

Zhen Yuanzi spat out another mouthful of blood.

"Pfft..."

Then he fainted.

Hong Yun walked over and supported him.

"Brother Dao! I told you not to eat so many Ginseng Fruits. See? You got overheated!"

"I asked you to share some with me, but you refused to listen. Now you've even fainted. Next time, don't hide them away. Send all the extra ones to me. I was born from primordial red clouds, so I don't get overheated easily."

The unconscious Zhen Yuanzi twitched a few times and fainted even more deeply.

Hong Yun took one look and realized he needed treatment!

Then he looked at Duke of the East and said:

"Fellow daoist, please wait a moment. Let me send Zhen Yuanzi back to Five Villages Temple for treatment, then I shall return to discuss matters with you."

Duke of the East thought for a moment, looked meaningfully at Hong Yun, and then nodded.

"No matter. Step aside!"

"Yes!"

The Quasi-Saints made way!

Hong Yun thanked them, then carried Zhen Yuanzi and flashed back into Five Villages Temple.

He handed the deeply unconscious Zhen Yuanzi over to the two Attendants, Qing Feng Ming Yue, instructed them to take good care of him, and returned to Duke of the East.

What an idiot! An idiot...

"Fellow daoist Duke of the East, now we can discuss matters."

"May I ask why fellow daoist Duke of the East came so urgently to find this old daoist?"

Duke of the East once again looked at Hong Yun before him with a sneer.

"Oh? You don't know?"

Hong Yun froze and shook his head.

Duke of the East did not waste any more words and stated it directly:

"Great philanthropist, hand over your Primordial Purple Qi to This Emperor!"

Hong Yun froze, then frowned slightly at Duke of the East.

This is bad! I was fooled.

"Fellow daoist Duke of the East, you do not know this, but this old daoist did not carry the Primordial Purple Qi on him. It is still at my meditation spot in Five Villages Temple. Allow this old daoist to retrieve it for you."

Hong Yun then turned around and prepared to return to Five Villages Temple.

"Hahahaha... are you trying to make This Emperor laugh himself to death?"

"Come! Surround him!"

Several Quasi-Saints instantly blocked Hong Yun's path!

"Th-this... Fellow daoist Duke of the East, why do you not believe me? This old daoist truly did not carry the Primordial Purple Qi on him."

Hong Yun was completely panicked. He carefully considered how to escape this place.

The Primordial Purple Qi was the foundation for attaining sainthood. How could he casually give it to someone else?

"I do not wish to joke around with you here. Will you hand it over or not? If not, perish here!"

After waiting for a long time and seeing that Hong Yun still would not hand it over, the Quasi-Saints began attacking.

Boom!

Bang!

All kinds of divine abilities and techniques collided. The ground exploded, and grass and trees were sent flying everywhere.

Before long, Hong Yun could no longer withstand them and fell into a disadvantage.

"Run!"

Now he truly wanted to flee. He transformed into his true form and sped rapidly forward.

Duke of the East grinned!

"Pursue him!"

The Quasi-Saints led a large force of Immortal Court Immortal Soldiers in pursuit of Hong Yun.

However, Hong Yun was quite fast and gradually widened the distance between them.

Before long, he fled into a dense forest and hid himself.

A moment later, the large force of Immortal Soldiers passed overhead.

After the Immortal Soldiers left, he patted his chest with lingering fear.

"That was close!"

Kunpeng, hidden in the darkness, watched Hong Yun below and curled his lips slightly.

Then he flashed behind Hong Yun and struck with his palm.

"Who... ah..."

Hong Yun was sent flying and crashed into a huge boulder with a bang.

Then he fell to the ground and coughed up blood!

He looked up!

"Kunpeng?"

Kunpeng sneered at Hong Yun!

"Hong Yun, I said I would settle the score with you. Today, I shall settle it once and for all!"

"This is bad!"

Hong Yun was terrified!

"Brother Zhen Yuanzi is not here. What should I do?"

"There must be a way. Stay calm, think carefully!"

But Kunpeng's attacks gave him no room to think calmly.

Several more attacks came at him. Hong Yun flashed aside to evade them!

"Y-you... Kunpeng, don't go too far!"

Kunpeng flew into a rage!

"I'm going too far? When you gave up your seat back then, why didn't you consider whether you were going too far? Huh?"

"Fellow daoist Kunpeng, it was not this old daoist who took your meditation cushion!"

Hong Yun was helpless.

"Shut up! I, Kunpeng, will reclaim justice today. Prepare to die!"

Boom!

Another attack came hurtling toward him!

It was too fast. Hong Yun could not dodge in time and was smashed into the boulder once again.

"Pfft..."

He spat out a massive mouthful of blood.

He was thoroughly enraged! After regaining his senses, he began counterattacking Kunpeng.

Both were Mid Quasi-Saints, and their strengths were evenly matched!

Suddenly!

Kunpeng waved his hand, and several Quasi-Saints from the North Sea appeared, attacking Hong Yun together.

The battle grew increasingly fierce!

After several days and nights, the utterly exhausted Hong Yun collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.

At this moment, he gradually came to a realization!

Then he made a major decision!

"Alas... if there is another life, this old daoist will never be a good guy again."

He then soared into the air!

"Kunpeng, didn't you want an explanation? Today, This Seat will give you one."

Kunpeng looked at Hong Yun with confusion, then his eyes widened!

"This is bad! Get away quickly, he is going to self-destruct!"

The Quasi-Saints immediately fled at high speed.

With a deafening boom!

As a mushroom cloud tore through the sky, the forest below was leveled to the ground.

The Primordial World's generation of old good guy, Hong Yun, had fallen!

At the same time, at the site of Hong Yun's self-destruction, a wisp of his Divine Soul fled far away, drifting toward Floating Pagoda Island.

A moment later!

Kunpeng returned and began inspecting the area for the Primordial Purple Qi!

Other than some magical treasures and fragments of magical treasures, there was nothing.

The Primordial Purple Qi had vanished without a trace!

He sighed, then left the place and returned to the North Sea.

This battle with Hong Yun had also cost him greatly. He needed to return and meditate to recover.

Elsewhere,

Zhen Yuanzi, who had been unconscious for many days, woke up.

Then he looked around.

"I... I'm back at Five Villages Temple?"

He suddenly remembered something and sprang to his feet!

"This is bad! Fellow daoist Hong Yun!"

He rushed outside Five Villages Temple.

Yet outside Five Villages Temple, everything was as quiet as ever.

There was not even the slightest trace of the Immortal Soldiers. He spread out his senses.

There was no trace of Hong Yun's aura either.

Then he began searching everywhere, sensing for auras wherever he went.

Finally, in a place that had once been a dense forest but was now flat ground, he discovered the only remaining scraps of Hong Yun's red Daoist robe.

Then he threw back his head and howled!

"Who?"

"Who the hell was it?"

Witch Clan.

Hou Tu, who had returned from listening to the Dao at Purple Firmament Palace, returned to Pangu Hall.

Sensing that Hou Tu possessed a Primordial Spirit,

Di Jiang and the others thought an enemy had invaded and immediately launched an attack.

Fortunately, they managed to stop themselves in the end.

"Y-Younger Sister?"

The Ancestral Witches stared at Hou Tu in shock.

"Y-You have a Primordial Spirit?"

Hou Tu smiled mysteriously, then recounted her experiences at Purple Firmament Palace to her brothers and sisters.

The Ancestral Witches were shocked once more, then overjoyed!

Di Jiang could not wait to set off for Floating Pagoda Island at once.

Hou Tu shook her head helplessly.

"Eldest Brother, wait. We should first arrange everything within the Witch Clan before heading there!"

Di Jiang froze, then gave it some thought.

"Younger Sister is right. Look at me, I actually forgot about that."

The Witch and Demon Clans had now reached an irreconcilable point. A great war could erupt with the slightest misstep, so they had to be on guard!

The next day,

The Ancestral Witches summoned several great witches, made all the necessary arrangements, and instructed them to remain in the tribe to cultivate as much as possible during the coming days and not provoke the Demon Clan.

Afterward, they secretly left the Witch Clan and headed for Floating Pagoda Island.

Floating Pagoda Island.

At that moment, a wisp of Divine Soul outside the array repeatedly struck the formation in an attempt to enter, yet could not get through.

Chi Yu, who was meditating and cultivating within Azure Dust Palace, had long since noticed it.

He had personally witnessed Hong Yun's self-destruction that day.

Afterward, he had also clearly seen that wisp of Divine Soul drifting toward Floating Pagoda Island.

"It is time!"

Chi Yu shook his head with a smile, then waved his hand.

The wisp of Divine Soul outside the Great Array was wrapped in the power of a law, shot through the formation, then entered Azure Dust Palace and arrived before Chi Yu.

Immediately afterward, Chi Yu waved his hand again!

A phantom of Hong Yun appeared, and he bowed and knelt.

"Junior Hong Yun pays respects to Azure Dust Battle Ancestor. I beg Battle Ancestor to save my life!"

Chi Yu laughed heartily, then looked toward Hong Yun's phantom.

"Have you understood?"

Hong Yun was stunned! He then pondered carefully for a moment.

"Reporting to Battle Ancestor, Junior has understood!"

Chi Yu nodded.

"Mm."

"Good!"

Hong Yun kowtowed and bowed again!

"I beg Battle Ancestor to save my life. From this day forth, Junior is willing to serve Battle Ancestor like an ox or horse!"

"Oh?"

"You, little Yun, wish to serve like an ox or horse?"

"Yes. So long as Battle Ancestor is willing to save my life, I am willing to swear an oath upon the Great Dao!"

"Hahahaha! There is no need for that."

Immediately afterward, Chi Yu waved his hand.

Two streams of law entered the last remaining wisp of Hong Yun's Divine Soul.

The power of the Reincarnation Law and the Creation Law spread across the Divine Soul.

Before long, the two laws began to intertwine!

A moment later, Hong Yun's phantom dissipated!

No one knew how much time passed before Hong Yun's Divine Soul gradually transformed into an embryo.

Chi Yu nodded and pointed again.

An even more potent stream of Creation Origin surged into the embryo.

The embryo began growing at a tremendous speed.

At a certain moment,

A red-haired young man gradually took form.

He wore a scarlet Daoist robe embroidered with patterns of flaming clouds, and red immortal cloud boots with black designs. He opened his eyes.

He then bowed and knelt before Chi Yu!

"Hong Yun thanks Battle Ancestor for saving my life!"

Chi Yu nodded.

"Hong Yun, what are your plans from now on?"

The young Hong Yun froze. He thought for a moment, then steeled his resolve.

He bowed and knelt again!

"I beg Battle Ancestor to accept me as your disciple!"

Chi Yu merely shook his head with a smile, while Hong Yun remained blankly kneeling on the ground.

Chi Yu then summoned Red Sparrow.

Red Sparrow had now completely transformed and was already a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal late-stage expert.

She was no longer as playful as before. Her youthful immaturity had faded, replaced by greater maturity and composure.

"Red Sparrow pays respects to Master!"

"Mm, rise!"

"Red Sparrow, how about This Seat finding you a disciple?"

Red Sparrow froze, then nodded.

"May I ask who my disciple is?"

Chi Yu pointed at the kneeling Hong Yun and said:

"There! It is him. He was formed from innate red clouds, and his foundation is decent enough!"

Red Sparrow looked at Hong Yun, while Hong Yun also raised his head to glance at her.

Red Sparrow then nodded.

"Hong Yun, let me introduce her to you. This is Red Sparrow. Her cultivation is at the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal late-stage. How about having her accept you as her disciple?"

"This Red Sparrow has followed This Seat longer than anyone else in the entire War-ending Sect!"

Chi Yu smiled mysteriously.

Hong Yun thought for a moment, then turned and bowed before Red Sparrow.

"Hong Yun pays respects to Master!"

Red Sparrow nodded.

"Good."

Red Sparrow then took Hong Yun to bid farewell to Chi Yu before returning to Red Sparrow Palace.

Elsewhere,

The Twelve Ancestral Witches were approaching Floating Pagoda Island from not far away.

Within Azure Dust Palace, Chi Yu grinned.

"They are here!"
